Transfer and Taxi from Thessaloniki Airport “Makedonia” (SKG)

Thessaloniki is on the second place among the Greek cities after Athens. It has big and well-developed infrastructure facilities. The same applies to public transport: buses and taxis. However, each means of transportation has its own peculiarities and nuances. One of the best ways to prevent the occurrence of possible difficulties is booking a transfer.

International Airport “Makedonia”

International Airport “Makedonia” stands 15 kilometers southeast from Thessaloniki. It services 4.1 million visitors per year. The airfield was constructed in 1930. It is one of the most important airports found in Northern Greece. “Makedonia” provides an air connection for Thessaloniki, neighboring lands, and Halkidiki. The airfield got its name after the largest Greek unit with a long history.

Airport Terminals

Thessaloniki Airport has got a passenger and cargo terminal. The passenger terminal includes three levels. The first level services “Arrivals” and is shared into two parts: international flights, coming from the Schengen area, and the domestic flights in the Schengen area.

On the first floor, you can find the exits and a shopping center. Among the amenities provided at visitor’s disposal on the same level you can see 34 Registration desks, waiting rooms, bars, tobacco shops, and different business headquarters. The second floor is occupied by several bars, overlooking the landing strip, and two welcoming restaurants.

Inside the airfield building, there is a restaurant, four cafeterias, and a tobacco shop. Apart from duty-free shops, you can also find venues, which sell traditional delicacies, jewelry, accessories, and clothes. Furthermore, there are car rental stands of a few companies in the building.

Thessaloniki International Airport operates 24 hours a day all year long.

The Cost of a Transfer from Thessaloniki Airport

The airfield is serviced by public transport: the bus №78 (the fare is 0.60 euro). The bus provides transportation on a scheduled basis. However, it often occurs that a vehicle deviates from scheduled hours.

Another means of transportation are found in the area of arrivals. It is a taxi service provider that operates 24 hours a day. Besides, the cost of transportation by taxi may increase upon the time of the day.

Taxi

The price for a drive from/to Thessaloniki city center is defined in the following way:
- at daytime (from 05:00 to 24:00) the price is €20;
- at night (from 24:00 to 05:00) the trip will cost you €28.
The payment includes: VAT, landing, and baggage facilities.

Pay attention! For hiring a taxi, you will have to wait in a quire. You should also be ready to pay extra charges for the amount of baggage, a seat for a child (if a driver could offer the one), and traffic jams. In Greece, you cannot pick up the taxi vehicle you like: there is always a strict order due to which the car, standing first in the line, goes first (even if it does not meet your needs).

Transfer

If you wish to avoid all the problems mentioned above, you should book a transfer option. In this case, you don’t have to wait in a long quire for the next free car, you can select the vehicle you like, the car seats are provided free of charge. No extra costs for baggage or traffic jams are applied if you book a comfortable transfer.
